Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Arbitration” section will survive any termination of this Agreement.

Arbitration Rules

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section.

The arbitrator shall be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of arbitrators.

Arbitration Location and Procedure

Unless you and we otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents that you and we submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary.

The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules.
